PRESS RELEASE

New LX Realtree Guitar from Martin

July 26, 2005

LX Realtree
(Click for a close-up)

This Special Edition LX Realtree model is sporting the Realtree Hardwoods HDTM camouflage pattern incorporated into a custom high-pressure laminate that is used to construct the body and headplate of this Little Martin guitar. As the name suggests, the pattern (developed by Bill Jordan) is designed to mimic the look of the real outdoors. Bill spent many hours developing and perfecting the camouflage pattern. Realtree's proprietary High Definition printing process brings this pattern to life.

The camouflage pattern appears on the headplate, top, back and sides. Using custom high-pressure laminate for all of these parts is a first for Martin. The Gotoh tuning gears and strap button are finished in Cosmo Black, which complements the Realtree Hardwoods theme. A natural colored Stratabond neck adds strength to the design.

Each instrument is furnished with a custom made Realtree patterned backpack-style gig bag, complete with an embroidered "hunter's orange" C. F. Martin & Co. logo.
